I actually suspect that your "supremum" and "infimum" functions are the problem here -- they look like they might be accumulating thunks and blowing your stack. But beyond this, they're also o(n) for what could be effectively an o(log n) operation at the least, if you used ordered sets. I'd start i

This is only a guess, but an educated guess: there is no silver bullet for memoization in Haskell. There are, however, some somewhat more general approaches you may be interested in. I think this hasn't been researched extremely throughly yet, but see http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~wcook/Drafts/20

Hello, I wrote a program in haskell that works with lattice finite automata (the generalization of notion of finite state automata). Let me post the source code as it is not that long... The problem is that my algorithm that computes the run (see function fun) of an automaton on the given word is
